CHEVIOT, Ohio Matt Huesman has owned Maurys Tiny Cove in Cheviot for the last 17 year s. But now, he's looking to sell the restaurant.Ive always felt that, since the day I bought the restaurant, Ive always felt more like a steward than an owner, Huesman said.Thats because of the rich history behind Maurys Tiny Cove. The restaurant was first opened by Maurice J. Bibent, also known as Maury, in 1949.It was a very small, limited menu, but he was known for a sirloin steak dinner for two that included baked potatoes and salads, and that was it, Huesman said.WATCH: Learn more about the history of Maury's Tiny Cove Historic west side restaurant searches for new ownershipOver the years, when Bibent owned Maurys, he expanded the restaurant to include a full kitchen, piano lounge and second dining room.In 2015, under Huesmans ownership, Hollywood came knocking and filmed a scene ofCarolstarring Cate Blanchett and Rooney Mara right in the bottom dining room of the restaurant.But now, Huesman wants to continue to preserve the history and legacy of Maurys under new ownership.I love this restaurant, I love this business, but it is a very time-consuming and all-consuming business, Huesman said.
